Ryan's Speech Smeared by Left: Rebutting Fox News' Sally Kohn
Examiner.com ^ | 8/30/12 | Barry Secrest

I'm not posting the body of the thread because it reposts the lies in the FOX hit piece. Go to the URL and read it for yourself.

This article does at least refute the lies in the Kohn piece, but only after repeating them.

Now, I am asking for help contacting FOX to complain about this article. I read it last night on FOX's breaking news, as if it was a news article, not an opinion piece. I was so disgusted that I put the Ipad down and went to sleep, intending to do something about it in the morning, but the piece had been removed and replaced by a more accurate article.

Then, a little while ago the Kohn article showed up on my Facebook page in the Fox feed. I accidentally put FOX on my Facebook page and didn't want it there, anyway. Now I really want to remove it, can anyone tell me how to get rid of it?

Re-posting from an earlier post. I said that I have always expected so little from Sally — She has never disappointed me!

Sally Kohn deserves a quick pink slip from FOX if, for no other reason, than it severely damages their reputation as "Fair and Balanced."

Her article isn't just slightly over the top, it is way over the top as in something you might expect from Chris Matthews, albeit with a bit more polish.

If you go to different newspapers and liberal msm sights across the country, you will notice most are sprouting the same Democrat talking points about Ryan. All have nearly identical headlines but are written by different people. JounOlist is alive and well.

I have been thinking the same thing, but FOX isn’t even taking comments. When I try to comment about the hit piece, I am automatically transferred to complaints about technical difficulties.

FOX again removed and replaced the Kohn article from the Facebook feed, so there is no way to comment there any longer.

Any suggestions?

The boys and girls at Breitbart need to find out where these people are hanging, who's running the list, who's on it.

Then publicize, publicize, publicize! (Oh -- but first, FOIA the major/leading perps' cell-phone records to see if they've been sharing hundreds of calls a day with Rahm or Axelplouffe or Jarrett or Carville, same as Breitbart did showing Georgie Clintonopoulos at ABC News in bed with Rahm, Carville, and Paul Begala in 2009.)

Go to the head office. Find out if Fox has an ombudsman, and go there. That person will have access to senior executives.

Ugh, while unlike many conservatives, I respect FOX’ attempt to be fair and balanced and have liberals state their side, they should not allow outright lies to be published. Come on, FOX. You can do better than that.

The article went out over the breaking news feed, so I sent the comment to the news editor. Kohn’s hit piece was opinion not fact.

They pulled it from the news feed and now they have also pulled it from the facebook news feed.

I certainly don’t mind them printing opinion pieces by liberals, but not disseminating the opinion as breaking news.

“Come on, FOX. You can do better than that.”


Like you I used to think this but since Glenn left FOX has only been marginally better than the alphabet networks and the margin seems to decrease every day.

Given how popular FOX was when they were exposing what the rest of the media was doing (especially Glenn’s show) it is quite confusing why they would head in the other direction.

FoxNews already tolerates the odious Beefy Bob Beckel, so why should the heeshee Sally Kohn not pass their smell test?
